:. DESIGNS DRIPPING IN DRAPERIES

"Draperies absolutely finish a room," exclaims designer Connie Thompson. "There is not a room that couldn't benefit from a drapery. Especially bathrooms, because they are small to begin with." Following her own philosophies Thompson created this charming, delicate drapery for a small bathroom.

Not visible is a shade which provides the client's privacy; important for this type of room.

Having to work with the customer's own wallcoverings, Thompson chose a pretty, contrasting fabric to appropriately coincide with the room.
